European Master watch maker Fred Delman's journey began in 1978 when, as a young man, he arrived from the Ukraine in pursuit of the American dream. With a determination to succeed and a tireless work ethic, Delman began his career in a small watch repair shop, Rhody Watch, in Providence. From here, he continued on to renown jeweler Tilden Thurber and then as a supervisor at Colibri. Now, after servicing corporate jewelry stores for the past 34 years, the Delmans are open directly to the public as well.

Fred Delman and his wife Elena proudly invite you to visit their sparkling new store, Delman Watch Company in Cranston. Here, at this immaculate establishment, you will find a selection of exquisite fashion jewelry and high-end watches, but just as important, you will see Fred's bustling and orderly workshop, situated behind a glassed window where his customers can see him working busily at his bench. In this meticulous space, every instrument, every watch component, and every piece of specialized equipment is catalogued, accounted for and in its designated place. Painstaking care is given to each watch - no matter the size or intricacy of the job. You can be sure that when you bring your favorite watch, antique pocket watch or heirloom timepiece to Delman Watch Co., you have Fred's guarantee that every caution is taken to keep it safe and secure until it is returned to you in its refurbished and restored condition.

Fred Delman has spent his entire career building a reputation of quality workmanship and excellent customer service and so it is not surprising that he always goes above and beyond what is expected. Even when only a battery change is needed, your watch will be sealed, have the gasket changed, and be pressurized. Fred uses only genuine parts made by the watch manufacturers and strictly complies with all the manufacturers' standards - no exceptions.

Delman Watch Company specializes in fine Swiss-made watches, but will service any watch ~ whether new or antique~ and provide you with a free estimate and evaluation.

Along with their repair work, Delman Watch Company sells such popular brands as Versace, Accutron, Russian-made Vostok, and refurbished, pre-owned fine Swiss watches. In addition, they also routinely do watch appraisals for insurance companies.
